First impressions were not great, the place looked somewhat derelict, the front door was half propped open, and difficult to open, the restaurant looked shut...... BUT, the food was excellent! I had an avocado, lobster grilled cheese, with thin fries that were lovely and hot.My hubby had the fried seafood selection, again good and hot. The waiter was very good.Would recommend this place, food and service were great, the actual premises needs some TLC.

Would absolutely go back and recommend to friends. Wish we lived closer. Mussel pots were very good, especially liked the french onion pot. Charred octopus was a bit too charred for me personally. Complementary truffles fries were great. Nice martinis. Good service. ??

I wish I could rate this place 6 stars. A very well decorated place to eat at in the evening. You could tell that they out a lot of time and effort to make it look like you got transported onto a sea ship. Our waiter was very polite and served us quickly. We ordered an amazing appetite plate, and then for my entree I ordered the Seafood Linguini, and it was the best pasta I ever had. It felt like my taste buds had exploded with favor in combination with the seafood clams and tomato sauce along with the pasta. Will come here again, and the food was excellent.

I went to your restaurant a couple of weeks agoOrdered mussels…. What a ( disgrace) they were dry and they were not bigger than a size of a pea .The mussel were totally dry no juice at ALL. I don’t know why they served the spoon their was no juice.I just came back from Brussels… finally had my mussels (see below the pictures)this is how mussels should look and be served.Please don’t response that I’m a competitor…I’m a customer who came to eat musselsAnd got cheated.

Went here for dinner last night. It’s was a nice escape from the craziness of the nearby bars, clubs and restaurants. Would definitely describe this restaurant as relaxing. Our server was very nice and knowledgeable on the ingredients and cooking process of items on the menu. We ordered the grilled calamari which was fantastic. It was so good, my boyfriend used his spoon to eat the remaining sauce. We will be back to eat that specific dish again and try to replicate it at home. We each got mussels, different kinds. Both were great. I enjoyed the large selection of mussels on the menu. We will be back!If you like seafood, go here! They know what they’re doing.

If you are looking for amazing seafood look no further. Tuna Tatar to start was super fresh and authentic. We then had the Danish Blue mussels which was to die for plus you can add shrimp to it. bbq salmon salad was also very delicious and refreshing. Service was 5 star as well. Karli was our server and had great knowledge of the menu and was super quick and funny. Will def be back! We would if poster the dinner but we were to busy enjoying. It went quick lol

Went to Mussel beach last night with a few family members. Needless to say with a name like that you would expect them to have great mussels. HA! Being a huge fan of mussels we ordered some and What they served as mussels was a disgrace… the mussels were about the size of a small blueberry. Beyond dry with little to no sauce. On top of that we ordered sweet potato crusted mahi which was so dry one of my family members asked if I liked the chicken I ordered. The veggies had ZERO seasoning on them and the rice was blan as well. I have had cafeteria lunches presented better than that. I understand seafood cost has gone up due to Covid… But the entire management and Head chef at this establishment should be let go. The fact a manager saw this food leave the window shows the lack of pride they have and a child could cook better than their chef. Also what type of restaurant prepares the same dish 4 different ways?! It’s no wonder their food is that disgusting. Being a local I can confidently say this food is Absolutely HORRIBLE and by FAR the worst restaurant on the ave.Also, atleast 4 of the 7 people that attended were up all night sick.

The food and service was amazing.One thing I'd like to mention, when Beet salad is ordered and there are nothing but red beets I think the server should let you know. Especially when the menu calls for both red and yellow beets.She said they probably were out

The best mussels I ever had, and the Clams Casino are a must. Wish I lived closer. My favorite on this visit.

We liked this place so much we went twice! The first time on a Saturday night during spring break we had to wait 1.5 hours but we just sat and had a drink at the bar. The bartender was super nice and attentive. I ordered mussels and they were delicious and my husband had the ahi tuna with risotto and loved it so much he got it both times! I tried the lobster roll the second time and really liked it as well. Not to creamy, could taste the lobster! Had a great glass of rose. Our server both times was Michelle(I think.) Very, very nice, helpful and attentive. Right on Atlantic Ave. Go. You'll love this place...
